The worst thing about mental illness is you have to look after yourself a disgusting amount. I know it's the only way to actually be in a fit state to look out for others, but it still feels wrong.

Judging by the Internet's definitions of introversion and extraversion, you'd think everyone's either an extreme hermit or a party animal with no in between.

Bio

A frazzled British thirtysomething cat mum with something of a tea addiction.

I like a wide range of RP genres, but have two absolute favourites: Pokemon and magical girls. (If someone manages to combine the two, I'll be VERY happy!) I post fairly regularly, but sometimes shit mental health days crop up - if that causes any delays, I'll try to resume posting ASAP.

Cici smiled at the children's reunion with their mother, then turned to face Tommy. "Yeah, this'll be my first proper rest in two days... Wait, what?" How did he know she'd been abandoned by a friend? What had she said to him while under the enchantment? Tommy, though, had things he needed to do, so Cici had no choice but to wait to find out.

She stumbled to the Pokecentre, where she hurriedly set her four Pokeballs on the desk and explained to the nurse what had happened. She knew she should rest, but instead, sank into one of the chairs and waited. She wouldn't rest up until she knew her Pokemon and her travelling companion were alright.

Groaning with fatigue, she leaned back, unable to forget that Sylveon's cries. How had there been a Sylveon in the wild, anyway? Didn't Eevees usually evolve that way out of attachment to a trainer? Could that happen with an Eevee who was particularly loyal to other Pokemon? Cici was too tired to think about it much. The Pokemon behind the kidnappings were no longer causing trouble, and that was the important thing.

The nurse, instead of calling the exhausted trainer over, approached her and handed over the Pokeballs. "Whew... They're ok? Thanks. To think I let them go through that..." As she reattached the Pokeballs to her belt, the door opened. She glanced over to see Tommy, who looked much healthier.

"You alright? I'll try not to make a habit of dragging you into trouble," she said with a weak laugh. "Thanks for helping, though."

She paused, her face becoming more serious. "Back there, when that curse acted up in front of you... did I say something?"

Cici watched the Shiinotic's light fade to nothing. She shuddered, before reminding herself that this was the Pokemon that had just tried to kill two children.

A horrified, grief-stricken cry sounded through the forest. The Sylveon struggled in Tommy's arms, trying and failing to shake off the paralysis, wailing at the sight of her closest friend's unmoving body. Even though Cici knew what would have happened if she and Tommy hadn't acted fast, she couldn't help wincing from a twinge of sympathy.

At the sound, Ligeia and Cadence reappeared. They stared around them, then faced each other, Cadence's chirps carrying an undertone of anger as she glanced from the Sylveon to the corpse of the Shiinotic. "Kri-Kricketot-Kricket!" she said, starting to tremble, while Ligeia attempted to comfort her.

"Hey... It really is all over now," Cici reassured her. Rationally, she knew this wasn't her fault, but that didn't stop her feeling awful about what her Pokemon had just experienced. She took a step, ending up on her hands and knees again. The little girl rushed to help, nearly falling over herself. "I'll be alright," Cici said, grasping onto a tree, picking up a fallen branch to use as a walking stick. "We all will."

Ligeia rested one of her tiny little arms against Cadence's back, taking a glance at the Sylveon. She knew about her from the other fairies, knew how badly a Pokemon who evolved through affection could snap after being abandoned by a trainer. She recalled hearing about the Shiinotic having found her close to death from her lack of will to even eat. As a fairy herself, Ligeia knew that many inhabitants of the forest liked to make deals - and how vengeful some fey could be. The terms had been simple: the Shiinotic would help the Sylveon get revenge against her trainer, as long as she assisted her in the future. According to some Pokemon, the Sylveon had once been reluctant to bring her victims, but her need for the Shiinotic's friendship and her grudge against humans had won out.

Ligeia's sympathy, though, was ultimately for Cadence, rather than anyone who had helped the Shiinotic for any reason. She knew exactly what Cadence had said to the Sylveon - "That's what it's like to lose loved ones."

Cadence shivered as her worst memory replayed through her head. Her mother, telling her to get away. Injured and exhausted, that was all the little bug had been able to do, leave the still forms of her brother and sister behind her as the Kricketune had succumbed to the spores and draining attacks. If she hadn't met and befriended the Igglybuff, she didn't know how she'd have coped. And just now, she'd nearly lost her trainer to that same Shiinotic.

But she was unable to tell Cici any of this.

"You two should rest now," Cici said, her voice weak. "It's, uh, certainly been an eventful night." Watching them hop back into their Pokeballs, she wondered if she'd made right suggestion - could Ligeia use Heal Bell? It wouldn't have been a good idea, the trainer decided. Healing Tommy would also have meant healing an incredibly distressed, angry Sylveon, and she'd seen the kind of damage it could do.

She staggered alongside Tommy, the two children following. It was probably best just to get back to town as quickly as possible.

@Zarkun

Before the weakened Shiinotic could come to, Cici called out.

"Quick, Cadence! Use Struggle Bug!"

Her already aching body became agonisingly tense from a mix of fear and effort to resist the curse as she watched Cadence totter forward. With a harsh chirp, the feisty little bug fired several green bursts at the Shiinotic, which swayed as it began to wake up.

"Again! One more hit should be enough!" Cici shouted. Pink energy crackled and sparked as the Shiinotic tried to make a move, but the Struggle Bug attack had diminished its strength. Putting in as much effort as she could, Cadence shot forth another blast. The Shiinotic toppled, its glow dimming as it fell unconscious.

The effect was instant. Cici suddenly felt free, as if chains tethering her to this place had been cast off. "It's gone," she said, gasping in relief. "The curse, it's broken." The two children stared at each other with clear brown eyes before hugging.

"Millie! Millie, are you alright?" the teenager asked. "I was searching all over for you!"

The little girl stared at her surroundings, then down at her torn, dirty clothes. "Benji?" She looked up at her brother. "I'm fine, but... What happened?" She gaped in shock at the sight of the injured fairies. "Those Pokemon, they're hurt!"

"Those Pokemon are the reason we got stuck here," Cici groaned, crawling forward to check on her team. She gave a weak smile. "That was great work, all of you." Returning all four of them, she tried to stand up, only succeeding with the help of the children.

At the sight of Tommy's unhealthy pallor, she glanced from him to Epsilon, then back, putting two and two together. "You didn't... Please tell me you didn't..." She didn't know if Dulcet would be able to manage a Heal Bell.

"Well, let's not hang around here any more." Her attention shifted to the Sylveon and the Shiinotic, who both lay unresponsive. "But what's going to happen with these two?"

@Dusksong

"Night!" Ella called as Leisy disappeared into one of the rooms. After retrieving her Pokeballs and checking into a room herself, Ella flopped onto the bed, resting her aching feet.

The peeling wallpaper and raggedy bedsheets gave the room a cosy charm. Already, Ella knew she'd like this place - but the main reason she and Leisy had travelled to this town wasn't the atmosphere. There was still a Pokemon in the hands of thieves, a Pokemon she and her friends would have to become strong enough to save.

Once she'd changed into her nightdress, Ella climbed into the bed and stared at the ceiling, wondering how Vivian was doing. Her worries threatened to keep her awake, but the journey had worn her out so much that it wasn't long until the sound of the river lulled her to sleep.

@Lugubrious Ok, I'll fix the post right away.
In Pokemon Spiral → 9 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay
@fer1323 It's ok :) What's Oscar going to do? Train for contests right now, or go and see if he can watch a gym battle (basically watch Sophia make a fool of herself)?
In Pokemon Spiral → 9 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay
@Heckno12 Yay, gym battle soon!
In Pokemon: New World → 9 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay
@Balthazar007 Yay! Though if contests are only going to happen in the biggest areas, I'll have to edit Ella's backstory and some of my older posts. I could change it to smaller-scale pageants or something like that, but she'd still have an interest in contests. Is that ok?

@Zarkun I was going to turn this into a mission to save the two kids, but it's probably better to finish up this story arc, I don't want to keep Tommy stuck in Feyhollow too long if you want to take our characters to Tefan soon.

This Shiinotic has something of a defense boost, but a Poison-type attack will still at least soften it up. You could have Epsilon knock it out, or if he's too tired for that, he could weaken it to the point that Cadence can do the rest. What would you prefer?
